Re: region qualifier for organizations

Sorry for the delay, I didn't realize this was a question for the Abacus project as it didn't have the [abacus] subject tag we've been using for Abacus discussions recently. I guess from now on I'll just check all threads just in case :) This is a good question. With independent deployments of CF in multiple datacenters or regions you may need to distinguish between organization 86d0482c-7208-4f2f-8606-935c080cad41 in region 'us' and the same organization id in region 'eu' for example. We could add another path to the API for the cases where you care about the region with GET /v1/regions/us/orgs/86d0482c-7208-4f2f-8606-935c080cad41/... if that helps. I could also sympathize with another approach, where we'd say that the organization id being a guid should truly be *globally unique*. It looks like the the current CF guid generation algorithm doesn't *guarantee* uniqueness across deployments [1] but combining the region with it would make it unique. IIUC I think that's what you're suggesting. What do others think?
